The adage, âThe grass is always greener on the other side (of the fence),â has been attributed to Desiderius Erasmus. He was a fifteenth-century Dutch humanist and theologian and the author of Adagia, a book of many famous sayings that have survived to this day. Had he known of Columbusâs epic voyage and the start of the Golden Age of Discovery, he might have added, âThe water is always bluer over the horizon.â
